I'm not sure OpenERP 7 can run on Python 2.6 (but I could well be deeply mistaken). I really wish we could mandate targetting Python 2.7 for OCA modules and take advantage of the additions brought by that release. It is nowadays fairly easy to get a python2.7 interpreter even if your distro does not provide one (virtualenv). We should also gently nag people about using the __future__ imports designed to ease porting to Python 3.x. The idea behind this is not to block useful modules but to start getting contributors in the mood for the change. This will save grief later. -- Alexandre Fayolle Chef de Projet Tel : + 33 (0)4 79 26 57 94 Camptocamp France SAS Savoie Technolac, BP 352 73377 Le Bourget du Lac Cedex http://www.camptocamp.com
